Avocado Cream Sauce

•  Ingredients:
• 2 Tbsp. butter
• 2 Tbsp. flour
• 2 cups chicken broth
• ¾ cup sour cream
• ½ tsp. cumin
• ½ tsp. salt
• ½ tsp. garlic powder
• ¼ tsp. pepper
• 2 California avocados, peeled and pitted
• ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
• juice of one lime

INSTRUCTIONS

1. First make the avocado cream sauce: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the flour, whisking until golden and bubbly, about 2-3 minutes. Slowly whisk the broth into the flour mixture. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes.
2. Stir in the sour cream, cumin, salt, garlic powder and pepper, whisking if necessary to remove any lumps. Remove from heat and transfer mixture to a blender or food processor. Add avocados, cilantro and lime juice, and pulse until smooth and well-blended. (Be very careful blending hot liquids — the heat will expand! So be sure to remove the lid occasionally so that the heat can escape.) Season with additional salt or pepper if needed.
